You'll play a key role in strengthening Salesforce delivery by establishing technical standards, guiding solution design, reviewing configuration and code approaches, supporting DevOps and release management practices, and helping ensure the platform evolves in alignment with business needs and enterprise technology standards.

This role is ideal for someone who can operate as both a strategic architecture partner and a hands-on technical leader - someone who can challenge assumptions, guide technical teams, mentor administrators and developers, and help bring structure, governance, and delivery discipline to a complex Salesforce environment.

  • Demonstrated ability to define and govern Salesforce architecture standards, design patterns, naming conventions, release standards, and documentation expectations.
  • Experience guiding Salesforce administrators, developers, consultants, vendors, and distributed delivery teams.
  • Strong understanding of Salesforce security, sharing model, profiles, permission sets, roles, data quality, and platform performance considerations.
  • Experience designing integrations between Salesforce and enterprise systems using APIs, middleware, event-driven patterns, or integration platforms such as MuleSoft.
  • Familiarity with Salesforce DevOps, environment management, release management, deployment tools, and change control processes.
  • Ability to review technical designs, challenge solution approaches, and ensure solutions are maintainable, scalable, and aligned with platform standards.
  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to explain technical tradeoffs in business terms.
  • Experience partnering with delivery leads, product owners, business analysts, and QA/UAT stakeholders to support predictable solution delivery.
  • Ability to identify technical debt, assess platform risk, and help prioritize modernization activities.


These additional qualifications are a plus, but not required to apply:
  • Salesforce certifications such as Application Architect, System Architect, Technical Architect, Platform Developer, Sales Cloud Consultant, Service Cloud Consultant, Experience Cloud Consultant, or Platform App Builder.
  • Experience with Pardot / Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, CRMA, Tableau, Data Cloud, Agentforce, or related Salesforce ecosystem capabilities.
  • Experience with Salesforce DevOps tools such as Flosum, Copado, Gearset, Azure DevOps, Jira, or similar platforms.
  • Experience in insurance, brokerage, financial services, or regulated enterprise environments.
  • Familiarity with Agile, Kanban, DevOps practices, SDLC governance, and enterprise change management.
  • Experience working with onshore, offshore, nearshore, and vendor delivery models.
  • Experience supporting workflow modernization, document management, portals, data standardization, or business process automation.


We know there are excellent candidates who might not check all of these boxes. Don't be shy. If you're close, we'd be very interested in meeting you.
